2014 Christmas in an 1867 house
This is the living room of the historic Owego home with drafty original windows.
Indow window inserts ready to be installed
Indow window inserts ship with a opaque white protective film covering the insert. When they're installed, the protective film is removed. Here we see the inserts leaning against a wall.
Beautiful leaded glass doesn't insulate very well
This is a beautiful window, and was perfectly fine for the 1800s, but it wasn't very efficient by today's standards.
An Indow insert before the film is removed
Once the protective film is removed from the Indow window insert, it virtually disappears. Tony has pressed the Indow insert into place, and is about to remove the shipping film.
Beautiful historic floors
This old home is filled with hand-crafted beauty throughout -- from the window trim, to the grand staircase, to this parquet floor in the hallway.
Just flex the Indow and press into place
Tony lines up the top of the insert... Makes sure the bottom is in place... and then presses in the sides to make a solid airtight seal.
Can you see the Indow insert in this photo?
This old window isn't drafty anymore because the insert is now in place. Can you see the insert in the photo? It's there!
No ugly hardware -- presses into place
You can see the Indow window insert in this close-up shot.
